🔥 Get Your Grills Ready: The Smokin’ BBQ Cook-Off🔥
What’s cooking? 🍗
It’s the return of the Chamber’s Smokin’ BBQ Cook-Off! We’re shaking things up this year with a brand-new “Backyard BBQ” category specifically for amateur grillers. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a local hobbyist looking to win a slice of the $400 top prize, it’s time to show us what you’ve got!
Who’s invited? 👨🍳
Everyone is welcome! We have separate divisions for Professional teams and Amateur “Backyard” teams. Not a cook? We need hungry fans to help judge the “People’s Choice” public tasting, but move fast, because there are only 100 tasting tickets available!
Where is the party? 📍
Join us in Fort Fairfield! We’re proud to be a highlight of the legendary Maine Potato Blossom Festival. 🌸
When should I show up? 🗓️
Mark your calendars for Saturday, July 11, 2026:
- 3:00 PM: Public tasting & People’s Choice voting begins.
- 4:30 PM: Voting ends and we crown the BBQ Kings & Queens! 👑
Why should you join us? ✨
Because there is nothing better than great food and community vibes! It’s the perfect way to support local talent and enjoy the festival. Pro-tip for competitors: Our friends at Hillside IGA are offering a 15% discount on meat for registered teams! 🥓
